Bacary Sagna set to quit Arsenal after FA Cup final

Bacary Sagna has told his Arsenal teammates that today’s FA Cup final will be his last game for the club.

The right-back will start for the Gunners against Hull City at Wembley this evening but will fly north on Monday morning to begin talks with Manchester City before joining up with the French World Cup squad.

According to the Daily Mail, the 31-year-old wants his future sorted prior to Brazil 2014 because he wants to head into the tournament with a clear mind.

And now, barring a last-minute snag in talks with the Premier League champions, Sagna will become the latest Arsenal star to move to the Etihad Stadium – following Gael Clichy and Samir Nasri in recent seasons.
